Castle Rest Studach is an Outbound hilltop castle on 610 m above sea level. NN in the district of Hütten of the town of Schelklingen in the Alb-Donau district in Baden-Württemberg .
Geographical location
The former Studach Castle was probably located on the hill above huts, which is now overbuilt with the baroque chapel from 1717. The castle researcher Konrad Albert Koch stated in 1927: “In Hütten, there was undoubtedly a small castle in the place of the little church. There was room for two buildings, one at the site of the church and one forward against the rock. The building between the rock and the church has been demolished. Weak wall remains are still there. The moat can still be seen between the church and the Gottesacker , which most surely suggests a former fortified structure. I suspect that this castle was part of the upper castle (Justingen) . We have several examples of such twin castles. "
history
Nothing has been written about Studach Castle. But there were nobles, called von Studach, who were in close contact with the Lords of Justingen and their successors, the Lords of Stöffeln. In 1216 the brothers Albert and Otto von Studach confirmed the donation of the Studach mill by Anselm von Justingen below his Justingen castle to the Abbot of Salem. And a C. von Studach appears as a witness in a Helfenstein document in 1259.
The Studach family was apparently also wealthy in Altheim (near Ehingen) , Ehingen (Danube) and other places (Öllingen, Ulm): On April 25, 1343, Sifrit Fulhin, called von Brichsen, sold a farm in Öllingen (Ulm) the collection women in Ulm. His wife Adelheit Studach agreed. In 1347 Sifrit also owned a field in Ehingen (Danube). Long before 1380 a NN Studach owned two farms in Altheim (Ehingen), and sold them to Heinrich von Nenningen before 1380. This in turn sold the farms in 1380 as free property to Lugka Rümelerinan, a citizen in Schelklingen. The fact that these two farms were given as fiefs to the NN Studach by Konrad von Stöffeln zu Justingen before 1380 is particularly revealing. This proves that NN Studach was a ministerial of the gentlemen at Justingen Castle and that the gentlemen of Stöffeln (or, before that, of Justingen) owned Altheim. Heinrich von Nenningen was also the feudal man of the knight Konrad von Stöffeln; the two farms were released from the fiefdom in 1380 .
Studach seems to have been the original name of Hütten, derived from Staudenach (river course lined with shrubs and bushes), as the Schmiech was apparently initially called in contrast to the Sondernach.
It is not known when Studach Castle was sold; the disappearance of the Studach nobles from written records can be narrowed down to the time after 1380 according to the above. Presumably, the male line died out. Because when the name Hütten first appeared in 1451, the castle no longer seems to have existed. In 1497 Hütten only consisted of the grinding mill, the bath room, an inn, a forge and a few bourgeois properties.
